Spring Break

Happy Spring, Everyone!

After more than a few days’ worth of attempts to write “Post #2”, I am sitting here in Albuquerque enjoying the leaves budding forth, the flowers blooming and the springtime birds rejoicing with lively morning serenades. Try as It might during this time, Writing refused to leave its special place at the bottom of the “Important Things to Do” list.

Enjoying friends, spending time with Heather and Jeremy (who turned 21 recently!), working with clients, taking walks with the adorable, four-legged, Tucker, being still and allowing for life to unfold in its astounding wonder have been the main occupations of late.


That said, the “much anticipated” Photo Shows are up and running!!! (See Below under the titles “Winter Travel” and “Hints of Spring at 9000 Feet”. Thanks again, Henry, for the wonderful camera!). Please accept my apologies for the immensely tiny yet otherwise rather lovely photos. At this point there seems to be no way around the size issue. Even so, thankfully, technology and I apparently are on more agreeable terms.

To cut the long story of this winter’s travel short, I thought I would touch upon some of the noteworthy highlights with the following captions:

“The Thirty-Four Miles to Heber Ride of a Lifetime”
(Please note that no mention of the word “road” is in this title),

“Now What?”
(As in having absolutely NO clue whatsoever as to what is next when NOTHING is going “as planned”)

“How Many Mechanics Does It Take to Diagnose a Tire Situation Correctly?”
(I will categorically state here that 3 is not enough)

“Well, That’s NOT What the Map Said!”
(Merciless in its persistence, if not particularly original)

"Why Worry About Anything?"
(I give the following case in point: While going to Big Lots to buy super glue, I instead found 4, I repeat, 4 pairs of jeans THAT FIT!!!! for $6 a pair! Enough said.)

Stay tuned for more on these and other noteworthy matters. (Now that “Tech” and I are so cozy, who knows what is yet to come!)

May each moment be blessed with your full attention! : ) Emily

Just LOVED the noteworthy highlights; you're definitely onto something there. : ) What a delightful way to present your travels...and your life. Would love to see more of those in future posts. Very cleaver idea! But then you're a very clever gal! :)

So good to see what you're up to and to see the photos in the silde show. Some great shots of you, and "the couple" (J & H) :) Also loved the Salt River Canyon and the Jemez photos. I HAVE to get there sometime. So many beautiful places to explore.

Keep up the good work Em!
Sending much love,
